Substantial new information has emerged recently about the prognostic value for a variety of new ECG variables. The objective of the present study was to establish reference standards for these novel risk predictors in a large, ethnically diverse cohort of healthy women from the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study. The study population consisted of 36,299 healthy racially diverse women. Racial differences in rate-adjusted QT end (QTea) and QT peak (QTpa) intervals as linear functions of RR were small, leading to the conclusion that 450 ms and 390 ms are applicable as thresholds for prolonged and shortened QTea and similarly, 365 ms and 295 for prolonged and shortened QTpa, respectively. As a threshold for increased dispersion of global repolarization (TpeakTend interval), 110 ms was established for white and Hispanic women and 120 ms for African-American and Asian women. Normal standards were derived using lead transformation matrix computed from 116 lead body surface potential maps to derive normal standards for ST monitoring with limb electrodes in Mason-Likar positions and chest leads V3-V6 at the level of V1-V2 and for bipolar vessel-specific left anterior descending (LAD), left circumflex (LCX) and right coronary artery (RCA) leads. The results support the choice 150 μV as a tentative threshold for abnormal ST onset elevation for all monitoring leads. Body mass index (BMI) had a profound effect on Cornell voltage and Sokolow-Lyon voltage in all racial groups and their utility for left ventricular hypertrophy classification remains open. Common thresholds for all racial groups are applicable for QTea, and QTpa intervals and ST elevation. Race-specific normal standards are required for many other ECG parameters.
